PumpkinHead Posted July 30, 2018 Report Posted July 30, 2018 I am borrowing the Legend's Stompa for the Friday team event for OFCC. The only requirment is that i get it to a decent 3 color minimum that he cam work off of. I am in the Tacoma area and am wondering if someone with an airbrush or knowledge of painting large pre assembled models has the time to help me out. I can offer food and drink for the help rendered. 1 1 Quote
WestRider Posted July 31, 2018 Report Posted July 31, 2018 I'd use a spray can for one main colour, then something like a 1/2" brush to lay down metal on the guns and engine bits that are showing. Then, again with the 1/2" brush, go over the various glyph plates and the big skull symbol on the front with something that contrasts nicely with the colour you sprayed on at the start. 1 Quote
PourSpelur Posted July 31, 2018 Report Posted July 31, 2018 Can bring airbrush over tomorrow if that works. Text me and we can hammer out details. 1 Quote
PumpkinHead Posted July 31, 2018 Author Report Posted July 31, 2018 I appreciate the offer, but I need the brains behind the airbrush as well. I have never used one and I don't plan to learn how to use one while working on someone else model. Though that may be a very Orky paint job... 1 Quote

PourSpelur Posted August 1, 2018 Report Posted August 1, 2018 "Brains" included in offer. Hell, depending on the the color scheme you're shooting for, paint probably is too;) 1 1 Quote

For vehicle orks? Base coat via can of spray paint (usually black), dry brush a lighter color (usually silver), Then paint the large sections whatever color your army is and highlight the large sections. If you get a stencil created for an ork skull, and spray paint that red or white over one of the large sections you've painted, it would be a great finishing touch. Crude stencils look best on orks, so don't worry about perfection. If ambitious, paint "energy" cables, machine eyes, and so forth. Lots of different colors, or pick one color and use just that. Ork vehicles have a pretty low requirement for painting skills. If you screw up, just claim it's intentional and people probably won't notice. EDIT: Here, example via a killa kan: This is minorly more advanced, but it's basically black with boltgun metal drybrush. Then the main army color (yellow) painted in three large sections (shoulders and faceplate). That little moon and checkers on the shoulders could be a stencil, though at this scale, is more likely a decal. Then they've gone above and beyond with the red on eye and on the power cable. It's not a complex paint job, nor does it require the ability to paint straight lines or do anything freehand. The one above has all that rust, which does look good, but isn't needed to make it to the tabletop. Even the basing is really simple, as it's just drybrushed sand and those little bushes you can buy pre-built and attach with a dab of glue. I like it, it looks good, but I don't think this is a terribly hard model to paint (which is by no means an insult to the painter). The stompa may be more time consuming, but it won't be any harder than painting the above. Quote
PumpkinHead Posted August 2, 2018 Author Report Posted August 2, 2018 @PourSpelur rocked it last night with his airbrush. The Stompa is probably 90% done. I just have to go in and paint the ork on top and do some washes. 3 1 Quote
